6 of the natural gas refuelling station Inspection Dissemination GAPS No specific protocol, general inspection techniques will apply Organisations would use the handbook if it would contain relevant information to problems such as: 1. What functions and buildings are allowed near s? 2. Technical Standards 3. Intervention measures Be aware of importance of the local community and involve them in the permitting process. Clearly organised under the responsibility of the DRIRE. No specific frequency. Organisations would use the handbook if it would contain relevant information to particular problems. Dissemination through DDSC 9 Which accident scenario s are taken into account. Classification of risk based of the quantity of hydrogen stored on site, regardless pressure, type and location of tanks No specific protocol. General procedure for CNG refuelling station will apply Organisations would use the handbook if it would contain information related to their field of responsibility. Formal recognition of the handbook by Italian authorities would greatly help its dissemination and acceptance. According BetrSichV every 5-years by Competent Safety Organisation, Tubes every half year by operators + manufacturers regulations. Also: 24 months after start-up and every three years. Some interviewees answered that the use of the handbook will depend on it s legal status. No specific protocol, inspection regime to be set in accordance with the risk imposed Organisations would use the handbook if it would contain relevant information to problems such as: 1. What functions and buildings are allowed near s? 2. Technical Standards 3. Intervention measures Be aware of importance of the local community and involve them in the permitting process.. Whether or not to conduct inspections and inspection protocol used are determined by the local AHJ Be aware of importance of the local community and involve them in the permitting process. 9 DDSC: Direction de la Défense et de la Sécurité Civile.
